"Shipping - recalled the secretary general of the ICS, Guy Platten, referring to the proposal made at the end 2019 from leading industry organizations ( of 18 December 2019) - submitted the request to its body of reference of the United Nations for the approval of a fund of five billion dollar research and development created exclusively with contributions from the sector.
